Shouldn't inoubliable be singular?

It seems that inoubliable is an adjective for année, with "et ce film" being only an interjection, so that inoubliable should be singular.  If it were written "qui rendront cette année et ce film" then the plural would be required.

Bonjour Richard,

You are correct! "inoubliable" - singular is now accepted as correct answer. 

Merci et bonne journée !

Agreed. It should be inoubliable. 

Maybe it is plural because it refers to both -- année et film -- even though film is just an apposition. If that's the case, it may be said like this in oral speech but it would be inexact.
